If youre expecting a low number of enrollees when the Department of Health and Human Services announces its first round of Obamacare registrant figures this week, heres a sneak peek into what to expect.

Health-care consultant Avalere Health reported Monday that 3% of the expected 2014 enrollment figure was met as of last week, or 49,100 registrants out of 1.4 million, for 12 of the 15 exchanges available in 14 states and the District of Columbia. No figures were available for California, Massachusetts and Oregon and arent included in the totals. Also not included are figures from HealthCare.gov, the troubled online registration system for President Obamas health-care overhaul in 36 states.

The District of Columbia was last in both number of enrollees and percentage, with 300 and 1%, respectively.

Which tells me that the 49,100 national figure is GROSSLY overinflated. Why? Because out of 300 D.C. "enrollments" only 5 paid. The rest are just looky loos. Apply the D.C. ratio of paid to "enrolled" looky loos and the REAL figure is LESS than a thousand paid enrollees.

Once the guvment has the info .... it will become interesting when they find out them with the guvment ain’t there to help ‘em. Some people cannot be warned. Pity for the low information signer-upers. Course I have pity for all of us too. We get the shaft too ... no gold mine but will take a gold mine to afford zer0care. Everyone will be unpleasantly surprised and regrettably we, those not supporting zer0care will have to support it anyways. Ain’t gonna be cheap, even for those signing up to receive. Will take a few years and then the signer-upers will be screaming. Too late.

In other words, the number of folks who are losing their health insurance is quadruple the number that is enrolling!

I'm reading that number is probably close to 2 million, certainly over one. At one that's that's 20 times more losing coverage. And estimates are that upwards of 5 million will lose coverage in the "first" stage, second stage next year when business' comply will be far worse.
